I think we can all agree that a good juxtaposition makes the best results: peanut butter is salty, jelly is sweet; Cocaine is an upper, heroin is a downer; I am pretty awesome, most of the rest of the world is not. It’s the juxtaposition of soft illustration style with bright-ass colors that makes Veronica Hebard’s illustrations so great. I actually think my retina came detached a little bit from the brightness, but you see what I mean. If you didn’t learn the lesson from Paula Abdul that opposites attract, then Hebard can drive it home. And you won’t even have to dance on a roof with a cartoon cat…unless that’s just something you’re into.
